SAVE OUR TIGER

Are we doing enough? Our tigers are in danger. They are falling prey to poaching and man-tiger conflict. Inviolate spaces for tigers are shrinking. Villagers living near core and buffer areas of tiger reserves poison them in revenge for killing their cattle. The government agencies have failed miserably in relocating the reluctant villagers; as in the last 40 years they have been able to relocate only 105 villages out of 1700 in protected tiger reserves.

A 23-year old MBA student of Noida is another victim of MMS sex scandal. She was filmed by her boyfriend when she was stripping off her clothes on music. Her boyfriend circulated the MMS because she refused to marry him. This is not the first case of that kind. It is happening in the country from the last few years. [...]

Pyaar Ka Punchnama

Love is about sacrifice. Is it? I have seen in the Bollywood movies of the late 60s and 70s actors profess that love is all about giving and not gaining. Their dialogues are only appropriate for reel life and not practical in real life[...]

Share your thoughts, in short

Micro-blogging is all about posting small digital contents—text, pictures, video and links—on the Internet. In short, it is a combination of blogging and instant messaging. Micro-blogging websites allow users to share a message of 140 or less character, a video of 12 seconds or less duration, short links or individual images with online followers[...]

Express your love, but is it that simple?

No. It’s not. The three-word expression I Love You is perhaps the most difficult one to express. People may be headstrong but go weak at the knees when it comes to proposing to someone special. For one and all, the expression of love requires perfect timing, ideal setting and right approach[...]

Eve teasing: The shameful reality

Posted by Abhishek Pandey on 01:06:00 in ,




Ravinder Pal Singh, Assistant Inspector of Police, was shot dead in Amritsar (Punjab) when he was trying to save her daughter from an eve teaser. The culprit is Ranjit Singh Rana, a young Akali Dal leader. This is not the first case. A few days ago five miscreants had killed a youth who protested against lewd comments passed by miscreants to a girl living in his neighbourhood in a Mumbai suburb. It has been happening not only in Mumbai but also in Bangalore, Delhi and many other small cities such as Kanpur, Amritsar, Noida, etc.

What is happening to youngsters and why are they indulging in these kinds of activities? Do parents and teachers teach them well how to behave with girls? Should we blame all this to media? Should we blame their upbringing and the way their parents bring up them?

Do we need tougher laws?
Sections 509 and 294, 354 of Indian Penal Code deal with sexual harassment cases. Offenders can be sent to jail for one year or Rs. 12,000 fine or both. Activists believe that we can make stringent acts but they will remain post facto solutions. Political will and police action at the right time is required to handle these cases.  

Why people are doing this?
Why does a boy feel like doing this? It has been observed by many that there is a male mindset that rape is a crime but eve teasing chalta hai. Should we blame Indian entertainment industry which has glorified eve teasing in some way or the other? They show lad clad in fashionable clothes pinch a girl and easily get away with it. We need to tell them that they should respect each and every girl. No one gives them license to eve tease a girl just because she is wearing skimpy clothes or goes to pubs or smokes cigarettes. 

We need to change the mindset of the people and need to stand up with girls who decide to complaint against such harassment and take up these cases to police. These are the girls who are the torch bearers and will change the world for their fraternity. Cheers!!!
